ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Andrew is the creator, writer, and illustrator of the Lost Sheep series. Way back in 1989 as a young Bible college student, Andrew was asked to give the dreaded “children’s talk” at a large church. Andrew possessed one talent: he could draw sheep. He bought some overheard projector sheets and drew up the story of Cecil and the Lost Sheep. The congregation loved it, so Andrew continued to draw stories to use with kids and adults. Other student, pastors, and teachers started borrowing the stories.

My Review:
Another adorable story book by Andrew McDonough! It was great in every sense. The pictures went well with the story. The story itself is wonderful and a perfect way to teach little ones of God’s love for them and how they can teach others about God’s gentle love by reflecting Him. I read this to my 6 and almost 8 year olds and it not only was a wonderful lesson for them, it captured their attention from beginning to end.

This little book get 5 star praises and highest of recommendations as both the perfect Sunday school lesson when teaching young ones of God’s love and reflecting Him and a book that would go well with every child’s book collections! Looking forward to more children’s books like this in the future to share with my kids!
